Just in case you didn't know ... she's on mastodon, has probably been here longer than you, and is active (she once actually replied to me!!!!!).

For me the lack of desire to interact in that way means that it would be convenient if I could follow certain mastodon accounts through lemmy, but because I have no desire to microblog or attempt to interact with celebrities, in turn, I have no desire to set up a mastodon account just to lurk a few accounts

Yeah, I have no idea if that's being actively developed, but it should be at least theoretically possible.

If it never works out I’ll live, it would be neat if it happens eventually though :D

I'm following lemmy through mastodon cause it suits me atm. You may find mastodon more interesting than you think. I've never been on twitter, and never will be, but I'm *very* enthusiastic about federation, and putting control in the hands of users, hence my account. While I'd like more varied content, atm, it's basically a Trek machine to me. I've met cool people, and seen cool things over the last few months. I'm pleased with my "purchase".

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It’s not that I wouldn’t find any of the content interesting, I just don’t feel like contributing on that kind of platform. Something about it just doesn’t appeal to me enough. It’s tough to nail down a concrete explanation of why exactly, yelling into the void just doesn’t do it for me. I prefer this more forum-like format where there’s space to be thoughtful and wordy in between the spicy space memes

Because of that, it would be neat if I could aggregate more Trek content into my life by following some accounts, but if I have to create another account and visit another separate website in order to do that I’ll have to pass, at least for now

@Commod0re
Yea, I completely get that. If twitter hadn't gone off the rails first, I might be in exactly your position. I wasn't a big reddit user. In 11 years, I generated about 3k comments(I know this cause I edited them all last night). What I really like are old school forums, but they've fallen out of favor. This place is pretty cool though, and I'm here to stay, if not prolific. My reddit account will be nuked at month's end. Just waiting to see if more stuff returns to edit.
